I am so freaking excited about Lost Ark. I’ve been following that game for years. Yesterday when their Discord started popping off my heart started racing. I just hope they didn’t miss their window. When it was released in Korea there were tons of international streamers playing it (and loving it) but you had to jump

I had no idea Control was related to Alan Wake. I’ve never played Alan Wake but I always heard good things about it

“you move to a new island, make some friends, build a house, do some farming, then make your house nicer, only there’s also a part of the game where you have to scour dark dungeons murdering monsters for loot.”

I like the idea of this, but I feel like after the first city or two it would feel formulaic ie bad replayability. 

I’ve done the starter fluid trick twice, but both times were on a really small tire (one rear lawnmower tire and one wheel barrow tire). It’s fun and works well, but I don’t think I would try it on something even half the size as that tractor tire

I currently already own two vehicles, a ‘14 Jetta TDI (hopefully my forever car) and a ‘07 Sierra 1500 which has been a great farm truck. I would like to one day have an actual sports car though, maybe a super charged ‘21 MX5 RF. I also want a Yanmar 359 tractor and an ASV VT75-HD compact track loader, but I guess you

The exterior looks nice, steering wheel is decent. I hate the giant screen sticking out of a thin dash though; it’s like when people put cell phone holders in their air vent, bleh. Also, why do EVs always have chunky rims? Would it kill them to have a nice five spoke?

Doesn’t look terrible but it looks more like GTA or really any Rockstar game than a Far Cry game. 

I’ve only played Dragon Warrior 1+2 and DQ8 (on PS2) and I thought they were “ok”. I never even beat DQ8 because it got really grindy at one point and the story hadn’t really reeled me in even after twenty hours or however long it has been. From what I hear form my friends, several of whom have played many DQ games,

My wife and I used to really splurge and only use ethanol free. This was in a ‘14 Hyundai Accent and ‘07 GMC Sierra 1500. However, that got really expensive and it it was slightly annoying to have to find stations on roads trips (though pure-gas.org helped a lot). Anyway, I now have a ‘14 VW Jetta TDI so obviously

Seems a tad high. I bought a Jetti TDI two years ago and there were tons of 65k miles 2012-2015 models for $9500-$11,500. The one I ended up buying was $15k but only had 34k miles and a 2 year bumper to bumper warranty from the VW dealer

I make a mental note when I’m at 1/4 but will usually fill up the next drive, so somewhere between 1/8 and 1/4. I’ve only seen my low fuel light a few times ever

I love switchel and have made it regularly in the summers since I learned about it a few years ago. Can’t wait to try your variation. My recipe is as follows:

In a half gallon mason jar or spring top jar, combine 6C water, 3/4C ACV, 1/2C honey, 2Tbsp ginger, sit in the sun for 1-2 days then chill and enjoy. I’ve also

Hopefully it actually works. Back in Feb we had a lime truck come dump a pile in our hay field and between the guy at dispatch putting the lime unevenly in the trailer and the fact that it had been raining all day, the lime got stuck and the semi flipped. I was the only one there and it was wild to watch. The driver

My first vehicle was a 97 Jeep Grand Cherokee and I bought it with I think around 60k-70k miles and drove it until I totaled it at around 170k miles. Ran perfect the entire time. Only thing it ever needed was a new water pump at one point. To this day it was top two vehicle I ever owned, really wish I hadn’t wrecked

Last year I was looking for pokemon like games and came across the Monster and Joker series. Not many of them make it stateside but I would love a Joker 4 with an NA release. 

Dark Alliance was literally the first game I had for PS2. My family was poor but surprised me with a PS2 for Christmas and I got to pick one game. It was between BGDA and FFX and I started with BG. We couldn’t afford a memory card so I played through Act 1 a lot. That was also the first top down ARPG I ever played so

I have Epic installed, but even logging in is a chore. I played a good bit of Dauntless when it first went public, and I got Remnant for free but haven’t played it yet. The Epic Store is one of the worst pieces of software I’ve ever used. 

The wife and I just finished the series and I gotta say, that show is so overrated. Some of the combat is flashy and pretty and music is decent, but the story is both run of the mill and a bit rushed for my liking, the characters take tropes to the next level, and some are down right annoying. Zenitsu might be my

She did the ALC quest line too which is definitely the best non-combat job quest line. I was shocked at how good it was because it was the last crafter job I did and most the other ones were so boring I was just skimming as fast as possible
